PECAN CHICKEN WITH BLUE CHEESE SAUCE
Holiday-special in every way, this moist chicken is coated with pecans and drizzled with a rich, blue cheese sauce. It's easy and delicious...a real winner in my book. You can also use turkey breast and adjust the cook time. -Maggie Ruddy, Altoona, Iowa

Steps:
- Sprinkle the breast halves on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the chicken pieces in one layer. Add the chicken and cook until lightly browned on one side and partly cooked. Turn and continue cooking about 5 minutes or until cooked through. Remove the pieces and keep warm.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon of butter in a saucepan and add the flour, stirring rapidly with a wire whisk. Add the broth and milk, stirring rapidly with the whisk. Add the cream and cook, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Add the cheese and stir until melted.
- Add the ham slices to the skillet in which the chicken pieces cooked, and cook briefly on both sides just to heat through. Transfer the slices to a heated serving dish, and cover each slice with a piece of chicken breast.
- Add the onion to the skillet, and cook, stirring, until wilted. Add the wine, and stir to dissolve the brown particles that cling to the bottom and sides of the skillet. Stir in the cheese sauce.
- Place a sieve over a small saucepan, and strain the sauce, stirring and pushing down with a plastic spatula to press through as much of it as possible. There should be about 11/3 cups of sauce.
- Pour the sauce over the chicken pieces and serve hot.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH BLUE CHEESE SAUCE
Chef Pierre Franey: This dish, like so many I have created over the years, came about by accident. One day while cooking with Craig Claiborne, I asked our kitchen assistant to hand me some cheese, thinking we had some Gruyere. Instead, he handed me a quarter pound of blue cheese. My first reaction was negative, but on second thought I said, "Why not?" I was very pleased with the result.

BLUE CHEESE STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS
Yet another recipe from the local paper that I want to try ... some day. I did try this recently and we all really liked it. Next time I think I'll place a small amount of blue cheese on top of the chicken when it comes out of the oven and is served. The cheese/butter mixture melts during cooking and even though the flavor is wonderful, everyone said more cheese on top would be nice. Also, I think the little bit of sauce that there is, would be nice thickened and spooned over the chicken too. Let me know what you think.
